I have gotten good at guessing ETs over the years anyway, but its nice to see it layed out.

weight 3300
hp 500

et 10.92@124mph

yah right. you have to realize these formulas take into account perfect traction. and making peak hp the entire time. which isn't possible

doesn't take into account my ~550 ft-lbs of torque either :/

i understand that you were just trying to help, but that's about as gay as "guessing" your h.p. with a couple of bolt ons, just because the "ricer" add said "gain up to 12 hp". if you really want to know your et, GO TO THE TRACK!
